When you were small, what sort of weird ideas did you have about the world?

For example, when i was younger (about 4/5), i used to think that the trails left by planes in the sky were actually zips, and that when somebody died, God used to open the zip from the other side to let their soul float through to heaven. back then, to me this was perfect logic

i was just wondering what other sort of weird ideas people had as a small child.

when i was little.. i thought when people get married.. and say "i do" i thought the baby comes out RIGHT away in the wedding.. and i thought i was adopted..o_O..
and uh.. i thought when you put gas in the car.. i thought gas was called battery. -- ''

I believed my brother when he told me "the alien in the basement" did it/took it/lived in the black whole. <- I thought our crawlspace was a gateway to other worlds (again because my brother told me so)... I thought Lightning was the way angels made it back to heaven... (story my mom told me) And I thought I could change the weather with a costume bejeweled dance and song... I was such a gullible child.

Edit: And after I heard the China Doll story, I thought my dolls were going to come to life at night and kill me so I took them out of my room and put them further and further away from myself as time passed.

I used to think ants had a society like humans did and I would leave them gifts of "food" (wild strawberries, clover etc) this was before I learned about the queen ant, worker ants, and fighter ants etc

another weird thought i used to have was that the number nine was a liar because when we first got taught how to add and subtract, for nine, you would use ten and the take/add one, and i considered that lying...
